Eclipse Girls car???

I talked to some people the other day, and they were telling me the eclipse is a girls car. This of course set me off.....What does everyone think, --eclipse...womans car, or an everyone car????

hard to say...
lots of non modded eclipses though... girls car only in the aspect that girls usually end up having nice sporty cars b/c of the insurance thing. or daddy bought em one.
pretty much any nonmodded "sports car" that i see has a chick in it. it doesnt make it a chick car, but you better mod an eclipse just to make sure...
how many chicks you see runnin on 18s with a body kit?
that would make it not a chick car
a cavalier is a chick car to me, and there are some others i can think of, but i dont want to name my choices b/c there are people that would hate me.

OK, cavalier owner here.

Personally i will agree with you, I have a 94 z24 which is a more "boxier" look to it. the 3rd gen cavs are to bubbley for me unless like you said it was modded. but the plain old 95+ cavs are just ugly. so which of them do you consider girly? is it the 3rd gen or the 1st and 2nd?

The Eclipse isn't my favorite car, but I don't always think of it as a chick r. I have from time to time, but not always. I think only the second generation suffers from this assumption, at least for me.

For a chick car, I think of the V6 Mustangs.

i meant the third gen...

none taken. I think 90% of RX-7 drivers are male, but it is nice to know girls like them so much they want one for themselves now if they knew how to drive them it would be
